I'm in Miami! Tomorrow I fly to LA, then Tokyo. Had conversations in French, Spanish and Italian tonight. And being home was fantastic. I'm a happy camper.

So...

The Year of Living Write

You may remember last month, for Le Rejectionist's uncontest I posted some resolutions. There were originally 9, but I've axed two.

A quick recap1. Save money. 2. Advance my WIP every month. 3. Take a novel through the full pre-query process.4. Read one book a week. 5. Vary my reading6. Review every book I read.7. Give away a book every week.

After re-reading my resolutions, and considering that I'm finally going ot be attending my first paid conference in March (knock on wood) I've decided not only to make resolutions, but to dedicate this year to taking my writing as far forward as possible and setting goals to that effect.

I haven't figured out the exact goals yet. But I know that I'm going to spend my entire year making my writing "boldly go where no [writing] has gone before." Yeah, I dream big :)

How's about you guys? Any big plans for 2k11?

PS. Don't forget to stop by tomorrow for an interview and the first giveaway of the year. And don't forget there will be a giveaway EVERY WEEK here.
